    Freddie Negrete is the man but until recently I didn't know he is in one of my favourite movies " Blood In Blood out " looking hench no less as well .

    Freddies at 5 .28 if you're in a hurry .

    Tattoos and Fibromyalga?

    I was wondering if anyone else has Fibro here.

    Hi @Beans yes I had Fibromyalga from around 2000 to 2012 / 13 . As far as getting tattooed I found the tattooing process probably a little easier as I was so used to feeling uncomfortable most of the time with the condition . Mentally tattoos also helped me because looking at them and finding out about the history etc gave my brain a break from Fibro and allowed me to focus on something each and every day that I really enjoyed which didn't wipe me out totally like most of the other activities I had previously loved .

    Particulary I think this site helped me a lot too so stick around and I hope you get out of it what I have .

    Top-notch tattoo artists based in Sweden?

    @ThatGuy I just spotted Martin Robson on the Living Art instagram page if you like traditional you should definitely get tattooed by him . He's English but for many years lived in the states working for people like Cliff Raven , Henry Goldfield , Good Time Charlie and Bob Roberts at Spotlight and in the words of Ed Hardy " Nobody tattoos Bob Roberts style better than Martin Robson , not even Bob Roberts "

    When he tattooed me I was completely blown away by his portfolio if you scroll down to the black & white sketchbook drawings on the insta page you will see what I mean .

    Best military jackets you can get are from The Real McCoy's , Buzz Rickson and John Lofgren - all Japanese companies specialising in this stuff , super good and super pricey just depends on where you live and how much you are willing to spend .

    The Real McCoy's - Superdenim

    Buzz Ricksons Europe - Jackets

    Otherwise deadstock originals come up on e-bay from time to time although people are asking silly money now probably a lot less pricey if you are in the U.S .
